Hopelessy Clogged sketchbook

Today I am off to Napa Valley for a few days. I'll be back friday but am not going to post any blog shtuff while I am gone. Yeehaw!

Here is a thought for the day. It would be awesome to have art fame and fortune and people begging to buy your art for large amounts of moola, but if that never happened would you still do it? I would. I can't not do this and will continue even if no one ever gets me and I don't git no respeck. Ya hear? Anyway something to think about if you are trying to decide if you are in the right line o' work. That question can be applied to any job. Right?

Hey There,
i came across your blog like 2 days ago and didn't have time to check it out so i saved it in my favorites. today i remembered it, and reading this particular post was perfect. today i was actually down because i'm dreading going to work tomorrow. i work at an insurance company and i've been sorta sad about hating what i do there, but i need the money. i think it's frightening doing something people don't get. and i also think that it's worse if you deny yourself too much. i have no idea how much courage and boldness it takes to be an artist. i hope to find out one day.

This comment made my day. Thank you. I never really know if people are reading this. If it makes you feel any better I used to work in a cubicle in various depressing jobs for 15 years and I can't believe I got out and get to do this for a living now. It can be done. If I could do it anyone can.
